Penguin Reading Guides | Author, Author | David Lodge (2113 words) |
 | Author, Author, David Lodge's brilliant fictional portrait of Henry James, begins on James's deathbed as the exhausted and disoriented author is about to be awarded Britain's highest civilian honor, the Order of Merit. |
 | After submitting the beauty and subtlety of his writing to the practical demands of the stage, with its endless delays, maddening rounds of revisions, unreliable producers, and fickle audiences bred on farces and crude entertainments, James's hopes for fame and fortune met with crushing disappointment. |
 | Author, Author, however, is very much more than simply a re-creation of James's failure in the theater. |
